RectangleMirror Download
NewDraw on your share from an iPad with Apple Pencil

Share one third of your ultrawide.

RectangleMirror snaps your windows into thirds and mirrors the third you choose into an ordinary window. Your meeting app shares that window at a size people can read. The rest of the screen stays yours.

Free for 14 days, then from $0.99 a month. macOS 14 or later.

On your desk

You keep the whole screen.

Three windows snapped side by side. Notes and chat never leave your desk.

In the call

They get one third, full size.

Click another third above and the share follows, without stopping.

A wide screen is great to work on and bad to share.

Share all 5120 pixels and everything shrinks into a strip nobody can read. Share a single window and you stop and restart each time you switch apps. A region sits in between: readable for them, flexible for you.

Entire screen sharedSharing screen

The whole desktop, squeezed into a letterbox. Three windows, none legible, and your chat on show.

RectangleMirror window sharedSharing a window

One third, twice the size. Drag another window into it and the share carries on.

Three steps, no drivers.

Nothing to install in your meeting app and nothing to configure. If it can share a window, it can share a region.

  1. Drag a window to an edge

    A preview shows where it lands. Release and it snaps: thirds on a 32:9 display, halves and quarters on the others.

  2. Turn on Mirroring

    From the menu bar or with ⌃⌥⌘M. Choose a third, a half, the full screen, or draw your own region and save it by name.

  3. Share the RectangleMirror window

    In Zoom, Teams, Meet, Webex or Slack choose window sharing and pick RectangleMirror. The window stays hidden on your side, out of your way.

Presenting tools that work the same in every meeting app.

Zoom, Teams and Meet each hide their drawing tools somewhere different, when they have them. These live on your shared region, so you learn them once.

Present one window, framed 16:9

Pick a PowerPoint, Keynote or browser window and RectangleMirror shares just the slide: no menu bar, no desktop, nothing that overlaps it. The share follows the window when it moves and ends when it closes.

  • Shapes for 16:9, 16:10 and 4:3, or the whole window
  • Dark bars around a slide are trimmed for you

Draw on what you share

Pen, highlighter, text and eraser sit in a small palette. Circle the number, underline the date, type the next step. Marks on a region clear when you stop; the palette is never part of the share.

  • Eight colours, five sizes, undo and wipe
  • ⌃⌥⌘A opens and closes it

A whiteboard one click away

Switch the share to a blank board, sketch the plan, switch back to the slide. The meeting never sees a stop and restart, and the board keeps what you drew for the next time.

  • Same pen, colours and sizes as on a region
  • The board is kept until you wipe it

Your iPad becomes the pen.

RectangleMirror Remote is a free iPad app. It shows what your Mac is sharing, live, and everything you draw with Apple Pencil lands on the shared window. Change region or stop mirroring from the couch.

  • Pairs like a remote: the Mac asks first, then shows a one-time code
  • Talks to your Mac over local Wi-Fi only. No account, no cloud
  • Included in the Pro plan and in the free trial

Layouts that fit the display you plugged in.

Snapping needs no shortcuts. Each monitor and resolution gets a profile, known ultrawides are recognised, and you can build your own.

32:9 ultrawide

Left, middle and right thirds, with half-height corners. One screen works like three.

21:9 wide

Halves, maximise and quarters, with left and right half as mirror regions.

Standard

Halves, maximise and quarters, and the full screen as a mirror region.

Made for people who present from a big screen.

Developers

Code, terminal and docs in one readable frame, while the IDE sprawls over the rest of the display.

Sales and demos

Move between product, slides and a browser without re-sharing. Notes and chat stay off the call.

Trainers and teachers

Teach across several apps, mark up as you go, and step to the whiteboard for the hard part.

Consultants

Show a dashboard clearly and keep the client folder, mail and calendar on the part nobody sees.

Try it before you download it.

Click through the real thing: pick a region, see the window your meeting gets, mark it up.

Private, and at home on a Mac.

Nothing leaves your Mac

No account, no analytics, no ads. The only network traffic is to your own iPad on your own Wi-Fi. Privacy policy

Only the region is shared

Mail, chat and the rest of the desktop stay out of the meeting, and the app's own windows are never captured.

Lives in the menu bar

One switch starts and stops mirroring. Starts at login if you like and remembers every monitor and resolution.

Questions, answered.

Does it work with Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet?

Yes. It works with any app that can share a single window, which also covers Webex, Slack and Discord. Choose window sharing and pick the window named RectangleMirror.

Do I need an ultrawide monitor?

No. On standard and wide displays you get halves and quarters for snapping, and you can mirror a half, the full screen or any region you draw. Ultrawides get the most out of it.

I started mirroring but I can't see a window. Is it working?

Yes. The mirror window is parked out of sight so it never covers your work, while meeting apps still list and stream it. Choose Show Mirror Window in the menu to look at it, or change the placement in Settings.

Can the meeting see the rest of my desktop?

No. Only the region you picked is in the mirror window. Whatever you keep outside it stays private, and RectangleMirror's own palette and settings are never captured.

How does the free trial work?

Every feature is unlocked for 14 days. After that, snapping and mirroring pause until you subscribe; your settings are kept. Cancelling during the trial costs nothing.

What does Pro add?

The iPad companion. RectangleMirror Remote is a free download, and it needs a Mac with the Pro plan or the free trial.

Which shortcuts are there?

⌃⌥⌘M switches mirroring, ⌃⌥⌘, and ⌃⌥⌘. step through the regions of every connected display, ⌃⌥⌘P presents a window and ⌃⌥⌘A opens the drawing tools. All of them can be changed.

Why does it ask for Accessibility and Screen Recording?

Accessibility lets it move the window you dropped at a screen edge. Screen Recording lets it show a region of your screen in its mirror window. Nothing is recorded or uploaded.

Make your next screen share the readable one.

Free for 14 days. macOS 14 or later, Apple silicon and Intel.
